Our guide, Seth, was an amazing mix of historic and personal Ft Myers history wrapped up in a package of entertaining wit. Have lived in this area for almost 40 years and still learned something new. Highly recommend this tour!

A fabulous way to learn and experience the downtown and historic river district!! Seth did an amazing job of making it come alive - explaining the history of the area, the people, the commerce, the ups and downs over a few hundred years - all in a funny, engaging and entertaining manner. He involved the tourists and cared about their well-being and getting as much as possible out of the tour, even with some people who were mobility limited. His personal experiences with growing up here added great local color and flavor. Wish we had done this when we moved to the area 10 years ago!!

Not sure what I was expecting, but I was not thrilled with the tour. Perhaps it had to do with the large bus group of senior citizens with various assistive devices that participated. Our tour guide, Seth, did his best to accommodate everyone but I was uncertain if he truly enjoyed his job or was just going through the routine. I do not think that I would recommend this tour to others.

I was looking forward to the Fort Myers walking tour this morning but was BLOWN AWAY by the experience. Seth was our tour guide and does he take his Home Town seriously - with humor, and a great amount of knowledge. God bless Grannie, Jackson Street (fist pump), and Seth for making two hours of my Saturday morning fly by...

We booked a private Historical Walking Tour for a group of 13 Red Hat Society women. This 90 minute tour was very informative and at a pace that our older members could keep up with. We learned many historical facts that even our permanent Ft Myers residents didn't know. The guide was very helpful and really knew her material. A plus was that it was all outdoors and we could safely follow CDC recommendations The participants enjoyed it so much we will be booking the Armchair Tour so others in or senior community can participate.
